Soccer fans will enjoy this soccer-themed adventure that's based on the cartoon.

When a madman challenges the Hurricanes to a match, you guide the'Canes through 15 stages to the final clash. Choose between two characters and use your weapon, a soccer ball, and three types of kicks to defeat the Gorgans waiting to ambush you.

Good controls guide the ball. Special power-ups grant extra abilities so you can bash bosses.

Decent graphics compensate for poor sounds. Although the sprites are small, the oversized ball is easy to follow. Colorful stages help you overlook the minimal sound effects.

With many standard soccer titles available, it's refreshing to see a variation. If you like the show or the sport, join this winning team.

ProTip: Wait for the first stage boss to charge, then jump over him and use a chip kick.
